Thankful








Today I am feeling extremely thankful. Every now and then I will feel really overwhelmed with that feeling of thankfulness when looking at Brody. Today I am thankful for...

Chubby fingers on my neck, slobber kisses, cheeks so chubby that his eyes squint when he smiles, smiles...and lots of them, his nasaly giggle, the way he laughs when I put him in the air or nibble on his neck, the way he needs me, the look out of the corner of his eye and smile when he wakes up in the morning, the way his top lip curls when he's concentrating, the way he babbles in the backseat, his sweet chubby legs, the way he adores Taylor, and most of all, the way I love him. And so, so, so much more.

I never knew a love for your child could be this intense. It was there when he was born, but has absolutely grown each day. I love this age. I love that we can interact. He is the funniest person in the entire world to me. Taylor and I just sit and laugh at his faces and his sweet grins. I get sad when I realize how fast he is growing! I mean...can he really almost be FIVE MONTHS OLD!!!! I know I will adore each stage of his development...but this time is just perfect. Just thought I would take a moment to say how thankful I am for a beautiful, healthy son!
